If you like the stamps (and other fun stuff) from Susana's shop SCACD, you should know that it's closed from December 23rd thru January 1st 2010. On the 2nd you can put thingies in the carts again. You can go window shopping during the Holidays, there's just no carts to put items in.

This is my last card for 2009, I'm going to have a busy Holiday season with lots of working days, 'so is the life of a nurse'... *LOL*

I'd like to wish all of my bloggin' friends and visitorsa very Merry Christmas, hope to see you all again in 2010!

I hope you'll take a look at the wonderful cards made by my DT sisters over at the Friday Sketchers blog, and that you'll find inspiration to make a card and take part in the challenge, there's a great prize to win sponsored by Simon Says Stamps.

I wish you all a fabulous weekend! I'll try to finish the shopping for Christmas gifts, the days just fly by...

Hi there! A new Tuesday and a new challenge for the SCACD DT members, today we were to make a card using some kind of fancy folding! I went searching on the net and found a tutorial for this fun card, click here to see it.

On the company blog Follow Your Heart you can see all the wonderful projects by the rest of the DT ladies!

If you're looking for nice offers you should check out the Specials section of Susana's shop!Right now you can find selected Spellbinders on sale!There's also always lots of new fun stuff to find at the shop, check out thesefabulous Bella Baubles mixes! Perfect embellies for any project!

In the video tutorial she says to score at 3", but I found that the square will be slightly off center if I do that, so I scored at 3 1/4", and then it looks OK! I made a scoring template if you like to try to make this fun card. You should watch the video first, then you'll understand my template better...(Just a short note before you start, the size of the paper is 11" x 11")

I hope you'll take a look at the wonderful cards made by my DT sisters over at the Friday Sketchers blog, and that you'll find inspiration to make a card and take part in the challenge, there are three great prizes to win sponsored by Mo's Digital Pencil.

On today's TIOT challenge for the SCACD DT we were to make a box of some sort to wrap a little something in. I found this great tutorial on Create Studio blog, and made some boxes.I made one following the directions, and one almost as described, only a bit smaller (took off 1 inch on all messurements.)

Then I had to try out an idea I got, I wanted to make a larger box using a Nestabilities die, label 6. I cut four half way (I just put the embossingmat under one side of the die to prevent cutting the whole label.) Then I cut two squares of green cardstock for the bottom of the box, one on the inside and one under the box, adhered the 4 sides to one square, then adhered the other square on the oposite side.
